    They lead in the looks and sound department. (IMO)
    There are similarities between the four main Japas, but you'll never hear someone say ''thats triumph looks like suzuki'' (for argument sake) take the Daytona 955i.... and the 675....Speed Triple (old and knew) beautiful bikes. Even the older Speed Triple 04' is a wonderful looking bit of work.

    Loved my old speed four with the extra body work. Stunning. Plus it sounded the biz.

    I quite prefer the 650 Daytona (No, not 675). It's the older model but looks truely the best, but seems rare in New Zealand... Timeless Elegance?

    The Speed/Street triples are just plain cool. The lines just work and the bikes look a bit nasty.

    And a valid point above - they are accepted by any motorcycle group - HD riders, Jap riders & hot chicks wearing thongs...........

    Old Bonnies are cool (new ones should be but don't quite cut it unless modified IMO).

    The bigarse triple tractor thing is not cool (too ugly and big) but definitely has some street cred (like a Bussa or B-King).

    Harleys used to be cool, too many on the road now so only selected models are cool. The Nightster is very cool.

    So far I'm very persuaded to the 650 (very). What's famous about the TT600?
